That's a fantastic shot. Where's it taken from?
Ah, very nice. I will have to add that to my list, scenery is gorgeous.
Certainly.
I've always enjoyed my time in the countryside. It is very accessible compared to the American counterpart, everything is s o much closer together and the train service obviously is light years better. You can see a lot in a much shorter period of time. That said, there is a lot more I want to see.
I really missed out on not being able to spend some time in Berwick upon Tweed last time I was there though. I love the seaside up there.
True. I like it in the fall before it gets too arctic.
Happy days with Philip Larkin:
